The rest of the world can no longer call soccer ‘football’ after the fascinating Rams vs. Chiefs MNF showdown on November 19. Call it footie or legball or what-have-you, but we have staked our flag in football, at least for the moment.

The Rams edged out the Chiefs, 54-51, who became the first NFL team to ever score 50 points and lose. Teams to score 50 points in NFL history were 216-0 entering tonight. Other fun facts from the game:

  1. There were more TD’s scored in that game (14) then the Buffalo Bills have scored all year (13).
  2. At halftime, the score was 23-23, the first time that halftime score was ever recorded in NFL history.
  3. The 63-point over was the highest over ever on an NFL game. It eclipsed that by the third quarter.

Metrics aside, take a dive into the sounds and energy of the game with this amazing clip posted by the Los Angeles Rams Twitter account. CHILLS CITY!

I watched this video while I was in the bathroom stall and nearly fist-bumped the dude pooping next to me. That would have been weird. Glad I didn’t.

UPDATE: Please disregard everything I just said. It was actually a shitty game, per Trent Dilfer. Carry on.

The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
